Canoe Polo

Tamatea Intermediate's canoe polo teams have had an outstanding season of sport. Although the season is over, a lucky 7 were chosen to represent Tamatea Intermediate in the Hawkes Bay Champs competition which was hosted on the 10th August and11th August 2013 over at Swim Heretaunga.

 The Hawkes Bay Champs team consisted of : Dylan Bishop, Nikita Binnie, Logan Haliburton, Caleb Thompson, Jack Gardner, Jayden Petersen and Sophie Davis. These 7 have showed growth in their skill in this sport throughout the season and some of them were selected to trial for the Hawkes Bay Under 14 Canoe Polo Reps team!

The Hawkes Bay Champs team was coached by 2 wonderful coaches who happen to be Mrs Howard with help from her husband Chris.

As a team we felt proud to be able to represent our school at the Hawkes Bay Champs Competition and to also receive a shirt with our last name and  special number printed on them!

The team had a relatively good first game and drew 3 all. The first win was the second game of which they won 6-3. A 1 all draw was next. That concluded our games for Saturday and on the Sunday we had our best win yet with 6-0 against St. Mary's. That win was due to our outstanding teamwork!

Our team is now planning to go to Levin later this year to compete in an under 14 year old  tournament.
